Airborne-Unmanned 10.30.18: Mavic 2 Enterprise, Falco EVO, FAA Restrictions

DJI has unveiled the Mavic 2 Enterprise, a portable drone with features designed for businesses, governments, educators and other professionals.

The Mavic 2 Enterprise extends users’ capabilities during critical operations like firefighting, emergency response, law enforcement, and infrastructure inspections. Mavic 2 Enterprise carries a high-resolution, 12-megapixel camera that is stabilized by a three-axis gimbal for smooth, stable video and images. The camera offers 2x optical and 3x digital zoom capability. Leonardo has successfully completed a series of test flights of its Falco EVO Remotely-Piloted Air System (RPAS) in Bulgaria. The flight campaign was to validate a package of upgrades that extends the endurance and operational range of the platform for overland and maritime missions. This includes a BLOS satellite data-link system and a new propulsion system based on a heavy-fuel engine. At the request of DOD and the Coast Guard, the FAA is using its existing authority to address concerns about potentially malicious drone operations over certain, high-priority maritime operations. The FAA, in cooperation with DOD and USCG, is restricting drone flights near U.S. Navy (USN) and USCG vessels operating in the vicinity of Naval Base Kitsap in Washington state and Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay in Georgia. Drone operations are required to maintain a distance of at least 3,000 feet laterally and 1,000 feet vertically from these vessels. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unmanned!!!
